Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 2/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup plain nonfat greek yogurt or use an additional 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons ranch dressing seasoning mix
  • 1 bunch cilantro wash well and pat or spin dry, trim and discard the tough stems
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 small jalapeño seeds and ribs removed for less heat

Instructions

  • In a blender, measure and add buttermilk, mayonnaise (I use light mayo), 1/3 cups each sour cream and plain nonfat greek yogurt, 1 small jalapeño, garlic, cilantro and the ranch dressing mix.
  • Secure the lid and blend until smooth.  Give it a quick taste test and season with salt if desired. I found that it didn’t need any adjustments.
  • Transfer to a container that has a tight fitting lid and refrigerate until ready to serve. It may thicken up moreas it chills.
  • Store in a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for 7 to 10 days.
